The  Study  Outline  and 
Its  Use 

The  series  includes  outlines  on  art,  literature,  travel, 
biography,  history  and  present  day  questions. 

The  outlines  vary  in  length.  If  more  topics  are  given 
than  the  number  of  club  meetings  for  the  season,  those 
topics  that  are  more  difficult  to  handle  or  on  which  there 
is  less  available  material,  may  be  dropped.  If  there 
are  fewer  topics  than  the  scheduled  meetings,  certain 
topics  may  be  divided. 

Lists  of  books  are  appended  to  most  of  the  outlines.  It 
would  be  well  for  the  club  to  own  some  of  the  recom- 
mended books.  Others  can  be  obtained  either  from  the 
local  public  library  or  from  the  state  traveling  library. 
When  very  full  lists  are  given  it  is  not  necessary  for  any 
club  to  use  all  the  books,  but  the  longer  list  gives  more 
room  for  choice. 

The  best  material  on  some  subjects  may  be  found,  not 
in  books,  but  in  magazines.  These  may  be  looked  up  un- 
der the  subject  in  the  Readers'  Guide  to  Periodical  Liter- 
ature. Magazine  articles  can  sometimes  be  purchased 
from  The  H.  W.  Wilson  Company  at  moderate  rates. 

A  list  of  the  study  outlines  now  in  print  will  be  found 
on  pages  three  and  four  of  this  cover.  For  later  addi- 
tions to  the  list  write  to  publisher.

INTRODUCTORY  NOTE 

This  outline  includes  poets  of  the  United  States, 
England  and  Ireland,  most  of  whose  work  has  been  pub- 
lished since  1900.  The  amount  of  biographical  and  crit- 
ical material  easily  available  in  books  and  magazines,  has 
been  a  determining  factor  in  the  choice  of  the  poets  to  be 
studied,  just  as  the  appearance  of  a  poet's  work  in 
anthologies  has,  to  a  large  extent,  governed  the  selection 
of  readings  given  in  the  last  program. 

It  will  be  found  possible,  and  delightful,  to  read  all 
the  published  work  of  most  of  these  poets.  The  readings 
given  in  this  program  suggest  some  of  the  best  and  most 
representative  poems  of  each  author,  which  would  be  in- 
teresting for  reading  aloud. 

This  outline  may  be  used  in  either  of  two  ways.  The 
ground  can  be  covered  thoroughly  by  the  use  of  all  the 
books  and  magazines  listed  in  the  bibliographies,  or  more 
briefly  with  only  the  anthologies  and  the  critical  books 
marked  *. 

Publishers  and  prices  are  given  in  the  bibliographies 
for  books  which  can  now  be  bought  in  the  United  States. 
In  almost  every  state  in  this  country,  it  will  be  pos- 
sible for  clubs  or  individuals  to  borrow  the  books  from 
the  Public  Library  Commission  of  the  state  or  from  the 
State  Library,  if  application  is  made  at  the  local  Public 
Library,  or,  in  case  of  a  community  without  a  Public 
Library,  to  the  State  Commission  or  the  State  Library. 

MAY  2,  1919.  M.  P.  PARSONS. 


INTRODUCTORY  NOTE  FOR  SECOND 
EDITION 

The  outline  has  been  thoroughly  revised  for  this  sec- 
ond edition;  bibliographies  and  readings  have  been 
brought  down  to  date  and  new  groupings  have  been 


8  jNTRODUCTORY    NOTE 

suggested  in  the  programs.  Children's  poetry  and  a  son- 
net group  have  been  added,  as  have  also  readings  from 
a  number  of  poets  whose  works  did  not  appear  in  the 
first  edition.  All  the  poems  of  any  one  writer,  which 
may  be  scattered  through  several  different  programs,  are 
brought  together  in  the  index.

THE  IMAGISTS 

"//  is  not  primarily  on  account  of  their  forms,  as  is  commonly 
supposed,  that  the  imagist  poets  represent  a  changed  point  of 
view;  it  is  because  of  their  reactions  toward  the  world  in  which 
they  live"  —Amy  Lowell.

Two  TRAMP  POETS 

1.  THE  SUPER-TRAMP:  William  Henry  Davies,  1870- 

"Oh,  happy  wind,  how  sweet 
Thy  life  must  be! 
The  great,  proud  fields  of  gold 
Run  after  thee: 

And  here  are  flowers,  with  heads 
To  nod  and  shake; 
And  dreaming  butterflies 
To  tease  and  wake. 
Oh,  happy  wind,  I  say 
To  be  alive  this  day." 

"Before  I  had  read  three  lines  I  perceived  that  the  author 
was  a  real  poet.  .  .  .  Here,  I  saw,  was  a  genuine  innocent, 
writing  odds  and  ends  of  verse  about  odds  and  ends  of  things." 

— Bernard  Shaw.

2.  RALPH  HODGSON 

"Twould  ring  the  bells  of  Heaven 
The  wildest  peal  in  years, 
If  Parson  lost  his  senses 
And  people  came  to  theirs, 
And  he  and  they  together 
Knelt  down  with  angry  prayers 
For  tamed  and  shabby  tigers 
And  dancing  dogs  and  bears, 
And  wretched,  blind  pit  ponies, 
And  little  hunted  hares."

BIBLIOGRAPHY 

This  bibliography  is  made  up  of  anthologies  and  crit- 
ical books  which  include  a  number  of  poets. 

Books  written  by  or  about  individual  poets  are  given, 
with  full  information,  in  the  lists  of  references  for  the 
particular  programs  to  which  they  refer,  as  are  also 
magazine  articles. 

The  bibliographies  do  not  aim  to  be  complete  but  to 
represent  each  poet's  best  work  with  the  best  critical  and 
biographical  material. 

The  outline  may  be  followed  by  using  just  the  books 
marked  *  if  all  the  books  are  not  easily  available.  In  this 
case,  the  anthologies  should  be  supplemented  by  poems 
published  in  magazines  and  indexed  in  the  Readers' 
guide  to  periodical  literature  under  the  names  of  the  in- 
dividual poets.

ONE  HUNDRED  AMERICAN  POETS 

These  names  have  been  selected  from  a  series  of  lists  prepared 
annually  by  the  Poetry  Society  of  America  and  intended  for 
reference  use  in  public  libraries.  The  lists  were  prepared  orig- 
inally with  the  purchasing  power  of  the  libraries  in  mind,  and 
also  the  popular  demand  for  books  of  temporary  poetic  interest. 
They  were  intended  to  cover  poetry  of  the  present  century  only, 
excluding  poets  most  or  all  of  whose  work  appeared  prior  to 
1900,  such  as  William  Vaughn  Moody,  Richard  Hovey,  Bliss 
Carman,  Madison  Cawein,  and  James  Whitcomb  Riley. 

The  present  selection,  while  not  made  by  the  Poetry  Society, 
is  based  upon  its  lists  and  has  been  subject  to  similar  difficulties 
of  choice,  for  there  is  always  a  border-land  where  decision  is 
difficult.  For  each  poet  only  those  of  his  books  that  appeared 
in  the  Poetry  Society  lists  have  been  given. 

In  the  works  of  poets  not  here  included  are  many  single  poems 
fully  up  to  the  standard  of  those  selected  but  not  sufficient  to 
float  the  entire  collection  into  this  limited  list.  With  the  added 
perspective  that  a  few  more  years  will  bring,  it  will  doubtless  be 
possible,  at  the  end  of  the  first  quarter  of  the  century,  to  make  a 
more  critical  selection.  One  might  make  a  list  also  of  the  one 
hundred  best  books  of  poems,  or  even  the  one  hundred  best 
American  poems.
